Scientists Working To Make Fathers Unneccessary

Scientists claim they have found a way for women to havebabieswithout men by creating artificial sperm. The team from China
claims it has created healthy mouse
babies by injecting laboratory-made sperm into eggs to produce healthy mouse
offspring.

Advanced
robots, artificial intelligence, self-driving vehicles and now artificial
sperm. Ironically, we have used our own creativity and intelligence via the
cutting edge of science to come up with yet another way to render ourselves
superfluous.

Is it really
a good idea to strive to make men even more moot and impotent than they are
now? Is this best for society? Government has already done everything in its
power to destroy traditional marriage and push men away from stable
relationships…and many didn’t need much of a push to begin with. Now, the poor
35-year-old lout that lives in his parent’s basement and generates what meager
income he has by donating his sperm twice a week, may soon be out of even that job!

And at
least those he “fathered” could say they had a dad, maybe even knew who he was.
What of those potential kids who were conjured out of thin air and made from
artificial sperm? Imagine them filling out a form someday and coming to the
line asking them to print their father’s name in the blank space. Do they just
put “none?” Or do they print “Mad Scientist?”

An Ode To Life

Appreciate all you have, as it- and you- will soon be gone. Leave no heartfelt words unspoken, no sweet gesture incomplete, no act of love undone. Love your spouse with passion and abandon, your kids with patience and understanding but also a firm guidance. Love also the truth, no matter how hard. If pursued by enough people with enough courage, it really will set us free.

And don't forget, we didn't ask to be born. We didn't create ourselves. We are not gods. There is a higher power.

True Then, True Now

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves."- Winston Churchill

Time Well Wasted

The power lies within your hands To do with what you may But the hourglass is filled with sands Of endless yesterdays
